A frightening reminder for us all not to frame science in terms of who owns the past. We must resist this temptation also when science may contradict common supremacist narratives, to not validate that they are up for scientific rejection/confirmation. x.com/netanyahu/stat…

New research out in PLOS Genetics: Torsten Günther and Carl Nettelblad investigate reference bias in ancient DNA data and how it can interfere with population genomic analysis journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/a…

I'm honored to be among the impressive group of contributors to the 4th ed of the Handbook of Statistical Genomics. Mattias and I wrote the chapter "Population Genomic Analyses of DNA from Ancient Remains" Thx to the editors David Balding Ida Moltke J.Marioni onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/97…

There was worldwide outcry when the Notre Dame cathedral was on fire. Why is there not the same level of outrage for the fires destroying the #AmazonRainforest?

Hello (small) world ! Our group (Population and Conservation Genetics) is looking for a post-doc to work on demographic history and genomic data. It is not organism dependent. Deadline approaching ! Contact me ! Also looking for a "computational technician" ! Lisbon is just ...

New Research out today in Royal Society Publishing : Helena Malmström Torsten Günther emma svensson Anders Götherström et al with an archaeogenomic study on the people of Scandinavian Battle Axe culture royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs… #ancientDNA #openaccess

Now taking advantage of the beautiful drawings by @lifeofmaro illustrating our caring & #cooperativecommunity: fantastic opportunities @IGCiencia to do frontier research. Also for ambitious scientists straight out of PhD! Where will your curiosity take you today? Please RT.

Happy to announce that our paper on admixture in the Afrikaner population of South Africa is out in BMC Biology. Thanks to all co-authors for getting this out! Rickard Hammarén @HollfelderNina Christoff Erasmus BMC Biology et al rdcu.be/b152j

New #preprint by @HollfelderNina et al. on Lactase persistence in northeast Africa with Lena Granehäll Hiba Babiker Carina Schlebusch @cschlebu.bsky.social biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We studied the bones of a 17th century African buried in a Mesolithic shell midden in Portugal and we found only cool stuff! Rita Peyroteo Stjerna Torsten Günther so happy to see it published 🥳sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

New paper out in which Rita Peyroteo Stjerna and Luciana G Simões et al. report the surprising find of an individual of West African origin buried in a Portuguese Mesolithic shell midden just four centuries ago. Read the #OpenAccess article: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

.Luciana G Simões made her thesis "Uncovering the past through ancient DNA-The fate and legacy of the last hunter-gatherers in Western Europe and Northwestern Africa" available to the public by nailing it to a wall. The defense will be on Mar 3rd with @siko76 as faculty opponent.

Genomic data from bones found at archaeological sites across Morocco paint a picture of how Neolithic farmers and pastoralists spread into Northwest Africa that is more complex than previously thought. Congratulations Luciana G Simões and team!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽nature.com/articles/d4158…

Northwest African Neolithic initiated by migrants from Iberia and Levant -- New study by our (still relatively newly minted) Dr Luciana G Simões out today! nature.com/articles/s4158… (1/6)

Our new paper is out nature! Farmers, pastoralists and local hunter-gatherers, all played a role in the Neolithization of Northwestern Africa. It feels unreal to see this important chapter of my PhD published! nature.com/articles/s4158…
